can you drive through it ie is it worse at any particular speed & goes or is better any other speeds? It's amazing what a missing wheel weight can make to vibrations though the car.

i have a terrible shudder through the whole car at various speeds.It gives you the impression as if there is a tyre out off shape,which on inspection this is not so ,its not a balance problem on them either. The car is an auto with 64k on the clock,have you any ideas as to wot other things could cause this shudder .thanks for any help on this matter it may be the first of many on this car but i will sort them out one by one :'(
